Adjusting the Shading Bar

The Shading Bar is displayed as a horizontal bar in
the lower half of the screen. Use the Shading Bar to
choose the strength of the echoes to be displayed in
black on the screens. Echoes that are weaker are
displayed in black.

Increase the black part of the Shading Bar by pressing

  if there are too few long (strong) echoes being

displayed.

Decrease the black part of the Shading Bar by
pressing   if there are too many long (strong) echoes
being displayed.

Manual Gain

When Manual Gain is selected, increasing the gain
setting will result in more detail being shown on the
fishfinder display. Decreasing the gain will reduce detail
being shown. See ‘Changing the Gain Mode’ in section
3-2 for more information on changing Gain settings.
